Eighth liters are booming again. After new registrations in the segment in 2017, which has been picking up noticeably for several years, recorded a slight decline, the statistics for the first quarter of 2018 show an increase of a whopping 47 percent. The undisguised 125 cc, as we have gathered for this comparison, are particularly popular. Young people are into motorcycles – MOTORRAD is of course extremely pleased.

The best example of the new enthusiasm for motorcycles is Lars. Lars is 17, just finished secondary school and the proud owner of a 125cc Beta Enduro. If he could, he would probably do nothing but ride a motorcycle all day. That is why he is stepping up the test today, and he cannot be stopped in the process. The young tester is just turning on the Tuono 125 Enters the parking lot with considerable momentum, brings the machine to a standstill with screeching tires, dismounts and steers the CB 125 R purposefully. And, Lars, your impressions? His grin has only widened since eight in the morning: “In a moment, in a moment, let me go first with the Honda, now I’ve really warmed up. And then definitely the Duke again. ”Well, who wanted to slow down this vigor??

Aprilia Tuono 125

So while Lars is biting into Honda’s new eight-liter “Neo Sports Cafe” naked, let’s take a look at that Aprilia Tuono 125. What’s the name of it? She comes across as damn grown up. More than just overtaking prestigious, the 1100 V4 beast as if cut from the face. That the DOHC four-valve engine hangs a bit lost in the lush chassis? A fly in the ointment for engine-spoiled test editors. It didn’t bother Lars, the knowledgeable audience also celebrated the Tuono look at the school yard check.

Aprilia Tuono 125 – the first in this class to come with Qickshifter.

The ergonomics also appear adult. 820 millimeters seat height is good for the 1.90 meter slag. Less Mona with her 1.58 meters, although our volunteer would probably also turn a GS Adventure on a manhole cover thanks to her trial experience. Back to the Aprilia Tuono 125: nice wide handlebars, lots of space, very comfortable seat – start up. Something dull, the sound pressure escaping from the underfloor exhaust. The Honda CB 125 R, on which our young colleague is just racing away, sounds much fuller. An acoustic indication of the willingness to perform of the eight-liter engine manufactured for Aprilia at Zongshen in China: a rather mild breeze blows in the combustion chamber below, and the engine only comes out of its pus from 7,000 rpm. If the Tuono is to stay tuned, he wants to be milked vigorously. The smooth running smoothness is ticklish, the gearbox is hard, and the clutch, with its sharp indentation, makes it difficult to start up. No, the drive is the strength of the Aprilia Tuono 125 Not. Admittedly, the first and so far only quickshifter in the class reloads the upper gears really smoothly, exuding real racing feelings. But the bottom line is just as little tearing it out as the maximum of at least 15.4 hp.

Then the handling of the small thunderbolt is more consistent. The thick USD fork responds cleanly to uneven road surfaces and, together with the mighty aluminum bridge frame, the only one in the test field, provides excellent stability. The Aprilia Tuono 125, which is not exactly light as a feather at 149 kilograms, hisses neutrally and nimble along the test track, only the Mitas “MC 25 Bogart” with its high cross-section, which is somewhat strangely contoured, still leaves room for improvement. A slightly higher quality initial tire would upgrade the Tuono. As well as a somewhat more powerful front brake and an ABS, which not only prevents the wheel from locking at the front but also at the rear – how else would Lars have come to a stop with a screeching rear wheel? At the end of the day he will still be beaming, but his verdict about the Tuono should be tough: “Everything is not so good, only the Quickshifter was my highlight.”

Much more positive is our judgment of the 125 Duke, including ours. Trellis frame, cast aluminum truss swing arm, 43 mm WP fork, full LED headlights, large TFT display and “My Ride” Bluetooth connectivity – the long list of Duke features would also be more than appropriate for a large motorcycle. Where it comes from? The 125 cc is largely identical to the 390 Duke from the Indian production line, and that is already lavishly equipped for an A2 bike.

KTM 125 Duke

Although the orgy of equipment and solid construction are reflected in a weight of 155 kilograms that is really too chubby for a 125, this does not detract from the fun of driving. Rather the opposite. The eight-liter duke pulls in, beautifully stable and trustworthy KTM often called self-confidently “The Spawn of the Beast”, its radii.

KTM 125 Duke.

Not quite as full of big bikes as it was last year when they were KTM 125 Duke on a fine Metzeler Sportec M5, but also with the much more agile Michelin Pilot Street for a 125cc. More comfortable than firm, the chassis with its KTM-typical longer suspension travel also digests nasty slopes. “Good for the vineyards”, Lars noted in the test report, which is probably what he meant by that. The brakes are a revelation: snappy and finely dosed, supported front and rear by the good Bosch ABS, the radial pliers on the 300 mm disc reduce speed with great ease.

Everything tippitoppi? Everything tippitoppi because the KTM 125 Duke motor is also full of music. Already quite powerful in the middle, free and strong at the top, with little vibration and meticulously tuned – a delight unit, which also has an optimally metered clutch and a smooth gear. It doesn’t really get any better, the author muses, and “would have killed a piggy bank and sold grandma for something like that” than on the steepest uphill section of the Mona test track GSX-S 125 loose-flaky, and, logically, also grinning, goes by. Oops Analysis at the parking lot. Mona: “Run like the devil, the little one. And the bench is quite hard, but pleasantly low. Everything is nice and compact. “

Suzuki GSX-S 125

As a matter of fact. Suzuki’s first 125, which shares its technology with the largely identical GSX-R 125, looks, no is, extremely manageable. Seat height 780 millimeters deep, short tank, an incredibly narrow waist – almost as if a normal-sized machine had been copied to 80 percent. The 133 kilo lightweight Suzuki GSX-S 125 can be maneuvered by anyone and woman without much effort, and it reliably reduces any fear of contact. Lars, who has just returned with the Duke and is immediately pushing for the next plane, has little left for such considerations. “Much too small for me, looks like washed too hot. And tires that are too narrow. How am I supposed to show myself to my buddies? “

Suzuki GSX-S 125.

We turn to the hard facts, remember Suzuki’s promise of a “class leading performance”. Is the beautifully light, nominally 15 hp leading Suzuki tool of choice for ardent young Iannones? Well, the performance of the GSX-S speaks for it. Thanks to the aforementioned absence of superfluous braking kilos, the four-valve engine, which also grinds up to over 12,000 tours with incredible stamina, pushes the Suzuki GSX-S 125 forward on every incline. The gear connections in the great gearbox fit perfectly. Hossa, actually runs like the devil, the blue one! Which then seduces even middle-aged rabbits to let it run.

Iris, our editorial assistant, good soul and hobby racer, is currently on the Yamaha MT-125 downhill in sight. Can we zoom into the slipstream? I would have laughed, stay on the gas, brake late! The deceleration performance of the GSX-S (floating saddle, 290 mm disc) fits, the ABS, if we took it, regulated fine. But uiuiui, you’d better skip the last cheese fondue. Among editors with a barrel instead of a six-pack, the bulky 31 mm telescopic fork groans noticeably and visibly when decelerating sharply. Is the only one in the field that lacks torsional rigidity.

If you look behind the flat plastic facing of the steel bridge frame, you will also discover rather thin tubes, the same with the swing arm and also the exhaust manifold. The response behavior and damping of the chassis are fully up-to-date, and the narrow Dunlops also grip happily. Bicycles that were more unwieldy were ridden. Alone, more stability would be desirable. Also a design that offers more value overall in view of the not outstandingly low sales price. Lightweight construction is all well and good, compared to the Aprilia Tuono 125, KTM 125 Duke and Honda CB 125 R (yes, we’ll get to it later), the Suzuki GSX-S 125 lacks tinsel.

Iris, your impressions on Yamaha MT-125? “Powerful engine, doesn’t need as much speed as the others, but works just as well. Top brake, really crisp. Also very handy, but I lack some stability. Sporty seating position, maybe a little too sporty. ”There is little to add to that.

Yamaha MT-125.

The Yamaha chassis works extremely tightly, the close relationship to the (super) sporty YZF-R 125 always drives with it. High the seat and hard, longer the tank, the handlebars a long way forward – even for tall Lars, the Yamaha offers active driving appeal, but clearly the least everyday comfort. On the plus side there is a long-stroke, powerful engine which incidentally needs sensationally little fuel, a squeaky clean design (the Yamaha is built by MBK in France) and a stiff chassis. The very short caster of only 89 millimeters, however, in connection with the rather hyperactive Michelin Pilot Street, which the Duke wears more confidently, creates an almost overhanded driving behavior. From a medium incline the uncomfortable feeling arises that the machine folds away under you. Getting used to. In addition, the radial pliers really pinch so vehemently that stoppies are always there, even in pairs. The somewhat roughly regulating ABS does not always reliably prevent them. Mona: “They are all expensive. I think the Duke offers more for the money than the Yamaha. ”Lars:“ The engine vibrates a little more than with Suzuki and KTM, it sounds a little tinny. ”That’s also true.

Oha: Lars is back. It seems our junior tester was fed up for now. In addition to the Duke, he was obviously taken to the Honda recently. This enthusiasm is contagious. But now please comment, after all, we are working here. “Well, at first I thought that the 13 hp of the CB 125 R would come across as weaker compared to Suzuki, Yamaha and KTM. But it’s not like that at all. It always pulls pretty hard. I don’t have as much space as on the Duke and Tuono, but the seating position is okay. It sounds like something, definitely has the fullest sound of the five machines. From a purely visual point of view, I like the Duke better, but the Honda’s style has something special. Otherwise I didn’t notice anything. Everything works really easy. ”It’s great that we agree: a Honda is a Honda is a Honda.

Honda CB 125 R.

How does the Honda CB 125 R, which is nominally around 15 percent weaker, manage not to have to follow the competition? Well, it is also stable, as Honda uses the frame, fork, wheels and swing arm of the larger CB 300 R. Nevertheless, it is light, at 127 kilograms even lighter than the Suzuki. The SOHC two-valve valve, which is powerful in the middle and only leaves one or two horsepower on the table at the top, enables passages at Duke level.

Honda CB 125 R..

At the same time, the eight-liter CB looks worlds more stable than the somewhat windy Suzuki. At the front, a classy 41-millimeter Showa USD fork works very sensitively, and there is nothing to criticize at the rear, just marvel at an equally powerful 150 mm tire. Compared to the also comfortable, but better composed Honda, the Duke appears a bit soft at the back, slightly underdamped. In general, the processing: The CB made in Thailand not only skilfully picks up on the “Neo Sports Cafe” motto of the large CB 1000 R, but also implements it neatly down to the last detail. Material quality, surfaces, weld seams – really everything to fall in love with. The gaudy, fashionable Duke, packed full of goodies, is countered by the CB 125 R with a timeless, dignified style. Iris: “Megachic. I would buy it. “

It is also nice that the high-quality look is reflected in precisely such driving behavior. The CB 125 R hits, a touch better than the KTM, the golden compromise between agile handling and confidence-inspiring stability. Steers nimbly but neutrally, then goes linearly and without ambush in the deepest inclines, has, like all test candidates, enormous freedom of inclination. Dunlop’s GPR 300, which is currently the best OEM rubber in the absence of the M5 that was last installed on the Duke, is largely responsible for this. It offers the most precise feedback of all tires in the field, the most reliable feeling. Also great is the Nissin radial brake with even IMU-supported ABS.

Lars has the last word: “Conclusion? I’m not quite sure yet. But clearly KTM or Honda. But first I have to go with everyone again. Can I take the Duke home with me at the weekend? ”And if he hasn’t dismounted, he’s still grinning today.

MOTORCYCLE test result

1. Honda CB 125 R
A well-behaved engine in which everything is just right, and driving behavior that can only be said to be the same. Then the CB 125 R is still the lightest machine in the field despite its very high quality design – the debut made to measure is ready.

1. KTM 125 Duke
Full-size dimensions, construction and equipment – more 125cc is not possible. The engine has a good performance, runs smoothly, hangs perfectly on the gas. Rather comfortable chassis, excellent brakes. Stalemate with the noble, minimally weaker CB.

3. Yamaha MT-125
In the middle, a powerful engine, very low consumption, stiff chassis and a killer brake – the MT is the tough athlete among the bare 125 cc. Everyday comfort suffers a little as a result, and the ABS should regulate more finely.

4. Suzuki GSX-S 125
Small, light and agile, uncomplicated to use, the Suzuki makes it very easy to get started. It also has a powerful, extremely easy-revving motor. But the GSX-S is likely to be a size too small for tall, heavy drivers.

5th Aprilia Tuono 125
On the plus side: it looks like an 1100 Tuono, has a stable chassis, good ergonomics. And the quickshifter. What would be desirable are: a more powerful drive at the bottom, smoother running, better clutch, more powerful brake. And other tires.

The school yard check

Salier secondary school in Waiblingen, any (almost) any school day. Eleven o’clock and five minutes. In front of the main entrance, in the middle of the playground, are those five 125ccs from the test. The gong is about to ring in the big break, then controlled chaos will break out. The aim of the exercise: field research.

When it comes to enthusiasm, the offspring seem assured!

Driving performance and tables of points, assessments by tester and editor, all well and good. But how does the target group, the youngsters, react to the group of undisguised 125 cc? What arrives Bim-bam, bim-bam! Here we go. The door opens, first a jittery swarm of fifth graders streams out, gradually older semesters are added. A little shy at first. Amazed looks, big eyes. “Why are the motorcycles here?” “School yard check. Which one do you like best? ”The notepad is pulled out so that at the end of the confusion a reasonably meaningful final result is official. “I do not know. May I sit on it? ”School bench presses become bench presses. Enthusiasm is spreading, especially, still, among the boys. First a cluster forms around the duke. “Simply great”, is the first comment, “I want one like that next year too.” What exactly is so popular with KTM? “Orange, the color of the frame, the white contrast and the stickers. The display ”,“ KTM is just cool ”,“ My buddy drives one too ”- it is immediately apparent that the Duke will win the race.

“It also has the best technology,” is the mix of expertise with the opinion that was previously determined by color stimuli. “Yes, but the Aprilia is sportier. It makes more speed and has a quickshifter. My father also drives the Aprilia! ”It is noticeable that the Tuono is more popular with those who are closer to the topic, but who otherwise do not receive too many votes. Honda’s CB 125 R not only has the slight advantage of standing in the middle, but also next to Sven. He, who is always on the road as a motorcycle missionary, turns the ignition key. Soundcheck, vroooaaaammm! Zack, votes for the Honda, while desires are aroused all around. Everyone, but really everyone, wants to turn the gas now. Somewhat on the edge is the Suzuki, rather shyly surrounded by some girls. “Do you like it?” “Yes, the bright blue is beautiful.” The majority of the young men punish the GSX-S with disregard. “Too small, tires too narrow”, was the expected result. In this respect everything is like it was 20 years ago.

The Yamaha is particularly well received: “Chic rims, cool design, looks sporty.” This is registered before all the dams break and five eight-liter engines are ignited, and then many young people take turns chasing the throttle into the limiter. Eins-a A1 orchestra. “Wow!” “Get out of there, let me too!” A chain reaction is looming. Bam-bim, bim-bam. Phew, saved by the gong. The chaos clears, the strictly unrepresentative result stands: KTM before Yamaha before Honda.

Perhaps the more important result: Seems like the future of the guild is dry.

It’s getting serious again. I drive towards the slalom at 30 km / h, first swerve to the right and try to shimmy through the cones. Hui, that’s somehow completely different than with the Kawasaki in the past.

Finally, sweet sixteen – that means hit the streets! Stop stop Motorbike, driver’s license, registration, quickly a head melon and insuring the whole thing correctly, parents pump up, “Hopefully it’s Christmas soon”, preferably all at the same time and preferably yesterday. Always slow, young horses! One after the other, in the right order and in the right place at the right time, the start on the street motorcycle succeeds as early as possible – on the 16th birthday. We show you what you should pay attention to, how deep you have to reach into your passbook pocket and pave the way for you through the 125 jungle of bureaucracy.

Driving school

Very important first of all: As a top party planner, you have certainly known when you will be 16 for at least a year, so take care of everything early on – not like the last bio presentation! Because you can take the theoretical driving test as early as three months before your birthday. When choosing a driving school, you should start earlier and better today than tomorrow. The prices vary greatly in the different driving schools, in the city and in the country, it’s best to get a few opinions, compare costs, the mentality and the words of the driving instructor – there are differences here too, and a green branch between the learner driver and Teacher is extremely important. It is not uncommon for motorcycle girls in particular to make stupid sayings and incomprehension on the part of the driving school owners. You don’t have to put up with that!

# Parents consent
# Driving license application (40 euros), eye test (7 euros), first aid course (30 euros) and passport photo (8 euros)
# Teaching material / app (40 euros)
# 16 theory lessons (around 280 euros)
# 12 special trips (around 600 euros) plus individual number of practice hours (around 40 euros each)
# plus individual fees for TuV (approx. 110 euros), presentation for the theory and practical test (approx. 200 euros) (approximate, average information)

Motorcycle purchase

Once you have registered and perhaps mastered the first practice ride, you should slowly venture out to buy a motorcycle. There are numerous models to choose from in all price classes (125 cubic meters, 11 kW and a maximum of 0.1 kW / kg). In the test you can see the latest naked bikes in comparison for 4,000 to 5,000 euros – a proud price for your first machine. For many novice drivers, a used stove is often just as suitable if the most important points are taken into account when buying, and the age of the motorcycle and the price are not in a confused relationship.

# Price-performance
# Visit carefully and at least in pairs
# Test drive
# Clarify any repairs
# Weigh the costs of this
# Registration of the conversion parts possible?
# Purchase contract
# Papers for the motorcycle and frame number available?

Protective clothing

If you’ve just picked up a great bargain and are already raving money: Please don’t skimp on protective clothing under any circumstances. There are no limits when it comes to style, the prices for solid and good clothing are rarely less than 800 euros; High-end leather suits and carbon knick-knacks are not necessarily on the wish-list for “income = pocket money”. A nice middle-class helmet, preferably waterproof textile clothing, safe boots and gloves as well as protectors are good in the shopping cart and should definitely be tried on in the shop. If you already have the things at the beginning of your driving school, it makes sense to use your own equipment for the driving lessons.

insurance

So the driver’s license is running and the test is getting closer, including the first ride on your own motorcycle. Before this can be moved in traffic, it needs at least a liability insurance. Again, as is so often the case: Compare prices in advance. However, you will always come across the same fact when making inquiries to well-known insurance companies as well as when comparing online: The costs are immensely high for underage novice drivers! If you first have the bike insured through your parents and register as a driver, you will usually get away much cheaper.

permit

The next step would now be the registration of your motorcycle. But before you slump out of office after waiting for hours, you have to know that you already have to have your driver’s license to be registered. At least that is the common practice. In order to enable the earliest possible road start in an emergency, you should pass the theory test beforehand and the practical test at the earliest four weeks before your birthday. However, you will only receive your driver’s license on your birthday and then walk straight to the registration office. It is important that the insurance contract is already in your pocket and that you take all the necessary papers and documents with you. Again, proper preparation is everything. First look on the homepage of your admissions office to see which documents must be included, which are available for download in advance or give them a short call, because the requirements can vary greatly from city to city.

# Proof of insurance with eVB number
# Registration certificate part I and II (this will be issued on site for the first registration)
# Vehicle papers, data sheet
# Proof of ownership, if applicable
# Driver’s license
# If necessary, the vehicle itself to see the frame number
# Parents consent with a copy of their ID
# Power of attorney if on behalf
# ID card

Tips to go

Done – birthday child equipped, driving-tested, registered and insured! It’s off on the streets, and the 125 is supposed to scrub a lot of kilometers. There are a few small tips on the way: Always have your vehicle and driver’s license with you! Falls are especially painful on the way to the outdoor pool – safety please first! Maintain your motorcycle regularly! Brains on after school too! The two-year probationary period begins!

costs

# Complete driver’s license around 1,300 to 2,000 euros
# Protective clothing around 800 euros
# Motorcycle around 2,000 to 5,000 euros
# Insurance around 100 to 800 euros per year
